I was speaking to someone from DHS (not a tech) and he was telling me
that there are applications that can "look" at a picture taken from a
cell phone and can get the location of where the picture was taken.  Is
this true?  If so, can someone provide more information?  If this can be
done, people posting pictures from their cell phones to social sites
should be aware of this...
Google googles does this.

Don't know it this needs special attention, it works like pattern recognition. Like if image contains Eifel tower - it is a pretty d#ยค% good guess that you are in Paris. And I think ppl on the social sites knows this :)
